晚清经学大师廖平认为,《难经》之所以提出诊脉“独取寸口”,是与中国古代妇女缠足而不便诊足部脉有关。作者研究发现《难经》成书时间的下限不会晚于唐开元二十四年(公元736年),而中国古代妇女缠足风俗的流行是在五代十国(南唐)以后,因此《难经》诊脉“独取寸口”与中国古代妇女缠足没有必然的联系。

Liao Ping, a master of late Qing dynasties, said that the reason why “Difficult Classicism” put forward the diagnosis of “soliloquy” is related to the fact that ancient Chinese women used footbinding instead of foot pedicel. The author’s study found that the time limit for the study of the difficult classics was not later than Twenty-four Years of the Tang Dynasty (AD 736), while the prevalence of footbinding in ancient China was found in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms (Nan Tang) “Diagnostic pulse” only inch mouth "and ancient Chinese women’s foot binding is not necessarily linked.
